Extra Information

4.1.5 Smart Zoom
Smart Zoom provides the following features:
 While following a route: When approaching a turn, it zooms in and raises the view
angle to let you easily recognise your next manoeuvre. If the next turn is at a distance,
it zooms out and lowers the view angle to be flat so you can see the road in front of
you.
 While driving without a planned route: Smart Zoom zooms in if you drive slowly and
zooms out when you drive at a high speed.
4.1.6 Speed limit warning
Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the road segments. Alpine Navigation
System is able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be
available for your region, or may not be fully correct for all roads on the map.
The maximum speed set in the vehicle profile (page 65) is also used for this warning. Alpine
Navigation System alerts you if you exceed the pre-set value even if the legal speed limit is
higher.
Speed warning can be fine-tuned in Warnings. See page 70.
You can also set the relative speed tolerance above which the application initiates the
warning.
The following warning types are available:
 Audio warning: You receive a verbal warning when you exceed the speed limit with the
given percentage.
 Visual warning: The current speed limit is shown on the map when you exceed it (for
example ).
You can also choose to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time.
4.1.7 Historical traffic
If statistical traffic information is stored with the map data, Alpine Navigation System can take
them into account when planning a route. In normal cases, these statistics help you avoid
usual traffic jams on the given day of week in the given hour but in some cases like on public
holidays that fall on normal weekdays, they can be misleading. You can enable or disable this
feature in Traffic settings. See page 74.
